The only intentional backward compatibility break in this patch set is

breaking the behavior of the WITH ADMIN OPTION feature would cause a
lot more pain.
Even more to the point, WITH ADMIN OPTION is defined by the SQL
standard.
The only way you get to mess with that is if you can convince people we
mis-implemented the standard.
Thank you for the detailed explanation.
I now understand what you said.
